There have been some recent reports going around the blogosphere about MeatWater, a new beverage that resembles VitaminWater but is flavored to mirror one’s favorite porcine and bovine dishes (i.e., Dirty Hot Dog Water, Wiener Schnitzel Water, Tandoori Chicken Water). What a zeitgeisty product, no? After all, bacon soda recently came to market and all things meat-related grab headlines. But seriously, food writers! Have you not been to MeatWater’s website and realized that it wasn’t an actual beverage product but a piece of performance art? AOL, how dense are you to believe that it is a real beverage company? Still, we had to learn more, so we got in touch with founder Till Krautkrämer. Guess what? MeatWater is even more awesome than we’d originally thought!

MeatWater™ Introduces New Escargot Flavor, Donates Proceeds to World Water Day

New York, NY (PRWEB) March 21, 2008 — Fast on the heels of the successful European launch of MeatWater™ at the Fusion 5 Festival in Cannes, France, Liquid Innovations is introducing their newest flavor, “Escargots Chantecleer.” MeatWater™ Escargots Chantecleer has been designed specifically for the French market, and will be introduced as a luxury survival beverage. The bottler plans to produce the product in France initially with a global rollout scheduled before the end of summer.

In accordance with its dedication to helping solve the world’s water crisis, MeatWater™ will donate 70% of all European proceeds derived from MeatWater™ Escargots Chantecleer to water charities around the globe. “Our charitable efforts redefine what it means to be a High Efficiency Survival Beverage,” said H. Faltermeier, CFO of Liquid Innovations. “Our customers need a new flavor like they need a hole in the head. Do you really think we need any more profit? It’s time to give something back. Escargot is going to put us in a position to provide life support where it matters most. As a corporate empire with galactic ambitions, we want to take this opportunity to liquidate our liquid aid!”

A zero footprint eco snail-friendly manufacturing facility has been built in Xi’an, China. Initial delivery is expected in the summer of 2008, just in time for the Beijing Olympic Games. The first 1000 cases have been earmarked for the US Olympic Heptathlon Team and will be delivered via rickshaw to the athletes’ village during opening ceremonies.
